Redefining Body Image Through Perspective

Your body isn't the problem, the angle is. I spent years hating how I looked lying

down until a photographer friend revealed something wild. When you're horizontal, gravity shifts everything

differently than when you're standing. That curve you obsess over in the mirror literally redistributes.

Your skin folds where bones press into surfaces. Even fitness models look completely

different lying versus standing because physics doesn't care about your workout routine.

The photos we compare ourselves to are often shot from impossible angles our own eyes could

never see. I started taking progress pics in the same positions I actually exist

in, lying in bed scrolling my phone, lounging on the beach reading.
